Everyone must have heard of Zuo Quan. Zhu De once said that Zuo Quan is "a rare talent in the Chinese military circle."
Even Chairman Mao allowed him to "special matters and special approval" and a rule set for him has not been changed so far.
So what kind of influence does Zuo Quan have? What happened to Chairman Mao specifically criticized him?
famous school talent, revolutionary pioneer
Zuo Quan was poor when he was young. He also dropped out of school several times because he had no money, but he never gave up. is determined to transform society.
1925, Zuo Quan was first admitted to the Whampoa Military Academy, which was well-known as the founding, and became a student of the first phase of the school.
Then he went to study in the Soviet Union and was in the same class as Deng Xiaoping, which is commonly known as the "theorist class".
Not only that, he also studied Fulongzhi Military Academy and cultivated profound military literacy.
It’s no wonder he was later at the age of 25 and was able to become the commander of the 12th Army of the Red Army.
However, his experience of studying in the Soviet Union also added some bumps to his military and political career.
Even Lin Biao said, "After he left Huangpu , it would be great if he had not gone to the Soviet Union."
Because Zuo Quan accidentally got involved in the struggle of students studying in the Soviet Union during his study in the Soviet Union. Fortunately, his revolutionary belief was extremely firm, so he was able to move forward on the road of revolution.
When the Anti-Japanese War broke out, the letter he sent to his mother was written like this,
"Mother, it is really hard to be a slave who has lost his country. If you don't resist, you will be killed or destroyed."
"I am determined to stay here and fight with you North China , and I won't go back to the south bank of the Yellow River ."
's words are all about serving the country to the death.
In addition, Zuo Quan also has excellent command skills and has fought many classic battle examples.
1936 In November 1936, he annihilated the two regiments of Hu Zongnan with a small-scale force, making him famous.
1941's Huangya Cave Defense Battle , the enemy he killed and injured was 6 times the number of casualties on his own, which made countless comrades excited and learn from it.
Zuo Quan's excellent command ability is also admired by Peng Dehuai and Zhu De.
As for his style of leading by example and decisive killing, it has attracted the admiration of many generals of our army.
However, the heroic Zuo Quan eventually died on the battlefield.
It was in 1942, when the tyrannical Japanese army carried out a cruel sweep on the Taihang Mountain area.
At that time, the Japanese and puppet troops were in a trend of siege. The situation was very dangerous when they wanted to encircle Gaojiapo and Nanaipu.
Seeing that the situation was critical, Zuo Quan rode on mule and personally inspected the breakthrough route.
Seeing that the sun was about to set, our army would also successfully break through, Zuo Quan rushed to a high ground to boost morale.
But no one expected that at this moment, three shells suddenly attacked. The first two shells of
were fine, but they just exploded in the distance, causing no casualties.
, but the last shell happened to hit Zuo Quan.
Before Zuo Quan could lie down, he was penetrated by sharp shrapnel, especially the forehead, chest and abdomen area. The wound was ferocious and bloody...
The situation was urgent, and the enemy might continue to fire shells at any time. The soldiers quickly lifted Zuo Quan and left.
But Zuo Quan's injury was so severe that he sacrificed before he could escape from danger.
Revenge on the battlefield. After you mourn
Zuo Quan's sacrifice, in order not to let the enemy find his body, the soldiers could only wrap it up with bamboo mats and bury it underground.
originally thought that after recapturing this area, it would be buried again.
But when the soldiers rushed back, they found that Zuo Quan's body had been excavated, which made many generals of our army very heartbroken.
Luo Ruiqing roared at the time and said three times in a row. Peng Dehuai even organized a suicide squad and launched a revenge operation.
First of all, Su Ting's counterattack. In this battle of , killed more than 140 Japanese troops, severely defeating the Japanese army's arrogance.
is the second beheading operation against the Japanese special forces " Yizi Advance Team ".
This army was the culprit that caused Zuo Quan's sacrifice and was also a "sharp knife" for the Japanese army to commit evil in the local area.
Peng Dehuai found out that when he bid farewell to the old and welcomed the new in 1942, the army was going to Dadexing Restaurant to attend a "dining party", so he set up an ambush in advance.
When the Japanese were eating and drinking, they were about to rest, the suicide squad members who had lurked into the hotel early took out their sharp knives.
Many of the Japanese and puppet army members who attended the dinner got the due outcome, and a few of them escaped sanctions were eventually executed.
In order to commemorate Zuo Quan, Shanxi Liao County also changed its name to Zuo Quan County.
The dead are gone, but the other comrades don’t know how to tell Zuo Quan’s mother this news.
In order to prevent the elderly from being too sad, everyone hid the news of Zuo Quan's death, and then regularly sent money to Zuo Quan's mother as Zuo Quan.
Chairman Mao would often ask people to buy something and then send it to Zuo Quan's mother;
Premier Zhou also often wrote letters in the tone of his son to ask Zuo Quan's mother's physical condition.
Even Ye Jianying went to the Hong Kong office and did not forget Zuo Quan's mother, so she specially sent her some gold.
Those who admire Zuo Quan were not only comrades of our party, but also generals of the National Army.
, which always advocates the high speed of soldiers, Bai Chongxi , in order to express his respect to Comrade Zuo Quan, he also led his army to circle Huangmao Ridge.
When the loud "General Zuo Quan's Song" sounded in the village, Zuo Quan's mother was in poor health quickly got up.
But what she saw was not her son, but a row of solemn soldiers.
The moment Zuo Quan's mother came out, the soldiers burst into tears, and Zuo Quan's former comrade-in-arms knelt on the ground with a pounce and kowtowed to Zuo Quan.
The old lady didn't know what was going on, because in her impression, the "son" would write letters and send money back regularly, and it was not until later that the child suddenly realized that the child had died. Although I was sad, the old lady later asked someone to write such words on her behalf.
"I will not hesitate to fight against Japan, and my son will die as his own!"
's family style is like this, and it is no wonder that Zuo Quan is noble in character and has attracted admiration from all comrades.
special matters were handled, and the rules were not changed
also mentioned earlier that in order to commemorate Zuo Quan, Liaoxian was named after him.
In fact, this situation was quite common in the past.
But later some people felt that this was not in line with the development of New China, so many places were changed back.
Zuoquan County also considered changing the name back at that time.
However, when the news reached the people, it caused a very violent response - the people of Zuoquan County were unwilling to change it, and they asked to keep the name.
has involved the opinions of the general public, so this incident has a great impact and even alarmed Chairman Mao.
After thinking about it, Chairman Mao affirmed the opinions of the local people and believed that special matters could be handled and the local name should be retained.
In the following decades, no one asked to change the name again, and it is still called Zuoquan County today.
From this we can see that those who fight for the people and sacrifice for the people will be remembered forever and will be supported forever.
In fact, this situation is not uncommon in my country, such as Zhidan County , Zichangshi , and Zhongshan City, etc.
Zhidan County commemorates Liu Zhidan, which is known as the Red Capital of the Chinese Revolution and belongs to Yan'an, Shaanxi.
Liu Zhidan was the pillar of the Northwest Revolution. From the establishment of local Red Army to the establishment of bases, he has made great efforts.
He is one of the 36 military strategists selected by New China and a hero in people's hearts who have made great contributions to the creation of New China.
named a county town after him, which is the common wish of the local people.
also belongs to the jurisdiction of Xi'an, Shaanxi Province, and Zichang County, which commemorates Xie Zichang .
His contributions are mainly reflected in the revolution in northern Shaanxi. Xie Zichang is very outstanding in terms of qualifications and merit.
Back then, he led Shaanxi Red Army to fight guerrillas and was responsible for organizing the anti-encirclement and suppression of the Kuomintang. He was a person who made Chiang Kai-shek also very afraid of.
It’s a pity that he worked day and night, but in the end he died at the age of 35 due to physical reasons.
Although life is short, Xie Zichang lets his light shine and illuminate countless Chinese people. I believe everyone is familiar with Zhongshan City, which I want to talk about at the end, is that it commemorates Mr. Sun Yat-sen.
This city is located in Guangzhou, originally named Xiangshan County, Guangzhou Prefecture. It was later renamed Zhongshan County, and later expanded to a prefecture-level city with a large population.
As for Mr. Sun Yat-sen's achievements, the most typical example is that he has anti-imperialism and anti-feudalism and destroyed the feudal dynasty. Although
made Yuan Shikai get a bargain, the significance of this revolution is still extraordinary. Countless revolutionary sparks were lit up, and eventually formed a prairie fire.
Looking at the above three, it is not difficult to find that like Zuo Quan, they are both concerned about the motherland and dedicated themselves.
People like this should be remembered and respected and studied by the Chinese people. They are also worthy of "special tasks".
The heroic soul is gone, and the letters of the family are passed down from generation to generation
In addition to a county town named after Zuo Quan, his influence is also reflected in the letters of the family.
1940, the battle between Hundred Regiments was about to begin. In order to command the battle without worries, Zuo Quan sent his wife and daughter to Yan'an.
Since then, Zuo Quan has never seen his wife and daughter again.
Because I can't stop missing me, Zuo Quan wrote a total of 11 letters to his family from 1940 to 1942. These family letters of
have been passed down and have moved countless Chinese people to this day. The first letter of
was sent at the end of 1940; the last letter was written by him three days before his death.
In these letters, some of them express their thoughts for their wife,
"Like everyone, I never thought we would part, now you are really in Yan'an..."
Some of them express their guilt towards their daughter,
"For the cause of the party, if you sacrifice in battle, there is no regret, but you can't let go of Beibei. I have never given him a little love and responsibility of my father."
Some of them express their thoughts about the past,
"Recently I always think of you and Beibei and Beibei and I was having fun together, making fun in the north and north, it was really joyful. "
Some of them were expressing their thoughts about the future,
"If the situation changes, you can boldly deal with special issues as appropriate, without taking care of me." What moved the most was the last letter he wrote to his wife and daughter three days before his sacrifice. There was a sentence in the letter,
"Zhilan! Dear, it is easy to see each other when we are separated. It has been 21 months since we were separated. When will we get together? Think, think, think, think."
only have the emotions contained in it, but it seems to be able to see it out of paper, which is really touching.
We can clearly see from these family letters that although Zuo Quan was a tough guy who was not afraid of sacrifice for the revolution, he also had the tenderness of missing his wife and daughter.
Perhaps it is precisely because of this lifelike "flesh and blood" that people nowadays admire and believe in Zuo Quan so much.
In addition to the "family letter" left to his family, Zuo Quan also left another "family letter" to his descendants, the latter even more heavy than the former.
This is his "theoretical work" for future generations.
In 1937-1941 alone, he left us more than 40 military works, and there are countless telegrams talking about military theory.
The more famous ones are "Ambushes Tactics", "On the Principles of Military Thoughts", "Attack Tactics", etc.
In addition, Zuo Quan and Liu Bocheng also translated the "Infantry Combat Regulations of the Soviet Workers' and Peasants' Red Army", which had a profound impact on our army.
It’s no wonder that the leaders of our army, as well as newspapers and magazines such as People’s Daily , gave him high praise.
Zhu De said, "Zuo Quan has achieved extremely rich and brilliant achievements in strategy and tactics." Premier Zhou said, "Zuo Quan combines guerrilla tactics with formal tactics, and has both theoretical literacy and practical experience. It is a model."
The People's Daily also wrote that
"Zuo Quan integrates advanced domestic and foreign tactics, and ultimately achieves a creative breakthrough. He is a famous military strategist in our country..."
In fact, Zuo Quan is not an isolated case. In that era, there were actually many revolutionary ancestors as great as him.
They worked hard and were not afraid of sacrifice. Some people survived the raging firearms and witnessed the glory of New China.
Some people are dedicated to everything and are willing to use themselves as the torch to illuminate the way forward for the people. In the end, unfortunately collapsed on the eve of dawn.
The latter is certainly worthy of praise, but the former is actually also worthy of admiration.
is the joint efforts of these people, which ultimately brought us today's peace and prosperity to us today.
Time flies, and this person is gone.
The revolutionary martyrs of that generation have basically returned to the dust, but their spirit will be permanently preserved and passed on. The passing of
has also become the most important part of our culture and cannot be forgotten.
